David Moyes wants to use his Everton blueprints to stay at West Ham for 11 years.

Hammers chief Moyes spent over a decade at Goodison Park transforming the Toffees from Premier League strugglers to regular European challengers, but has lasted 12 months or less in subsequent stays at Manchester United, Real Sociedad and Sunderland.

The Scot was handed a Hammers contract until the end of the season when he took over from sacked Slaven Bilic earlier this month, and is yet to win in his opening two games in charge.

But he believes that once he finally tastes victory and sorts out his squad he can start planning for a long future in east London.

“If I can get good stability and strength, then it could easily be 11 years,” the 54-year-old said ahead his return to Merseyside on Wednesday to face his struggling old club. “West Ham has unbelievable potential to be up there. They’ve got the infrastructure now.

“I’d love to think football clubs would always go long-term and think that way. I hope it’ll turn full circle. At the moment, managers are down to probably 16 months in the job — maybe even less in some cases.
